EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the emotional farewell of Queen Isabella Jagiellon as she departs from Transylvania in 1551. Painted by Sandor Wagner, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 128x167 cm and is housed in the Hungarian National Gallery in Budapest. Isabella Jagiellon, the queen consort of John Zapolya and claimant to the Hungarian throne, was forced to leave Transylvania when it fell into the hands of Ferdinand of Austria. Legend has it that during her departure, she found solace at the gates of Meszes where she carved "SFV" (Sic Fata Volunt - It is the will of fate) into an oak tree. The painting beautifully portrays Queen Isabella standing tall and regal against a stunning Romanian landscape. Her full-length figure exudes both sadness and wistfulness as she bids farewell to her beloved land. The intricate details capture every nuance of her royal attire, emphasizing her status and grace. This artwork not only showcases historical significance but also highlights themes such as departure, royalty, and landscapes. It serves as a poignant reminder of a powerful woman's journey through adversity and leaves viewers captivated by its depth and beauty.
